Poor strike-rate; rattled home well when beaten 0.5l at Naas last week; in the mix again

Needed the run over an inadequate 5f on return at Naas last week; can improve

Fine runs at Gowran of late over further but ground a slight concern as is drop in trip

Drop in trip should suit but he may need more respite from the handicapper

1-13 on the AW and 2-21 on turf; well handicapped on pick of turf form & can go well fresh

Best runs came on softer ground that this; stable holds better claims with Stanhope

Second here last year; Sligo run can be forgiven as she got caught wide; each-way chance

12-race maiden was never a factor at Gowran on return; others appeal more
